Quick way to change speaker and EAX settings?

Deam · Oct 14, 2004, 07:02 AM

I often switch between headphone and speaker settings.
Is there a shortcut or some way to switch between the two, while it remembers what EAX settings I had it set to per setting?

Anyone have any ideas?

Well, I use a receiver to do this sort of thing. There might be some sort of software profile for the card, but I'm not too sure.

if you install .443 driver, it auto-change for your set. .444 can't do that.

.444 would be the Audigy 2 ZS drivers I assume. It's okay though, I relaized with testing there isn't much diff in left adn right channels whether it is set to headphone or 5.1 so it is no longer a real issue.

buggy software?

I have an audigy1 using A2 ZS drivers. Basically, I have headphones split off the main line, and I wanted to use a software shortcut or something to switch the settings quickly. But, I realized there isnt' much diff between the outputs if I leave it to 5.1 or headphones. That, and when you change between them, the EAX (stereo surround) option which I use all the time gets reset.
